Chapter 55
In the long sky, golden crows fall heavily, and the sunset glow spreads out gorgeously, rendering the winding green hills, winding green water, and the entire city of Kyoto into a golden and green flowing appearance.It's as if a wisp of green smoke spreads out from the rice paper, and gradually converges on the tip of the brush that has been stained with gold powder.

The bustling Zhuque Street in the daytime has become empty at this time, tourists and hawkers who set up stalls are scattered on the way home. The clerk was sitting at the table and dozing off boredly, only the flags and lanterns fluttered in the wind.

In Xie's mansion, which occupies a vast area, Xie Jie has not yet rested, sitting in front of the window in ordinary clothes.Behind him, the melting sunset light came in through the window screen, shining on his plain white clothes and crow-blue temples.

Wen Lu, who had a sword hanging on his waist, told him what happened in the Zhanglu Academy: "...the young master who served the bachelor in the cabinet and a few cronies contradicted the second young master Yun and the fourth young lady. They got the infamy of "beasts". After returning to Zhanglu Academy, Princess Changhuan sent Fulu, a maid beside her, to find someone to teach them. Xiao Yi taught them on behalf of Mr. Zhao, and finally left the fourth girl alone , It’s just that the humble office can’t find out what they said.”

"It's just that later, when the Fourth Miss and Mr. Xiao went out from the bamboo house, it could be seen that both of them looked not very well, especially Mr. Xiao."

Hearing this, Xie Jie smiled: "She is eloquent, and her knack for exasperating people is first-rate. Maybe she said something that annoyed Xiao Yi. It's okay. Jian Guo, find someone to watch, don't People are dying."

Hearing that Lu Dao was right, Xie Jie waved him to go down.

After he left, Shen Qinghe, who had been sitting in the study and staring at Xie Jie's blue-and-white glazed red peach-and-bat pattern pen holder, asked him casually: "Didn't you let go of your surveillance on her before? Wen Lu has done such things, hey, I said, do you dislike Wen Lu? This is easy to handle, if you don’t like him, give me someone to use, I happen to be short of someone like Wen Lu .”

Xie Jie raised his eyes: "Short of someone?"

Shen Qinghe waved his hand: "Just tell me, you know what my situation is now, even if you give it to me, I can't use it. Tell me, what do you think about that little girl? Why did you start sending Wen Lu again?" spying on her?"

"She's different." Xie Jie said slowly, remembering her answer sheet.

What's more, this person is also involved with Mu Guiliu, Pei Wanyin, and even Pei Yan.

He had acquainted with the boy Shen Qinghe, and he didn't shy away from telling him about his plans: "There are too many things involved in her, the capital has been peaceful for so long, I will not let a woman threaten this peace, do you understand?"

It's okay if it's just involved, as a woman, it's a good thing to be smart.But if you are ambitious, you can't tolerate it.

"Are you monitoring her for the convenience of coercing her in the future?" Shen Qinghe asked with a shake of his hand holding the tea.He admits that Yun Zhuo is different from the ladies of other families, she is too sharp, but just like this, one can think that she is a mere woman who will cause turmoil in the court, is this too exaggerated?
"If she keeps herself safe, everyone will live in peace." Xie Jie saw his shock, but he didn't want to explain any more, so he just said calmly.

These years of ups and downs in the officialdom have made him develop the habit of never underestimating anyone easily.

What he didn't say was that if Yun Zhuo had any delusions that he shouldn't have, he would even kill her with his own hands.

Shen Qinghe suddenly thought of what happened before, and when he contacted what Shen Qinghe said today, he said with certainty: "Then, even if she didn't come to you, you wouldn't let her marry Pei Yan, right?"

Xie Jie lowered his eyes and did not speak.

Not only Pei Yan can't marry, even the noble son of this aristocratic family, she can't marry either.The best ending for her is to marry a family heir who has been farming and studying as his wife, and live a healthy and happy life.Stay away from Kyoto, and stay away from...power.

He set fire to Minxiang at the age of 11. This resourcefulness and viciousness should not be underestimated.

Shen Qinghe still felt that his worries were unfounded, not to mention that he thought Yunzhuo was very fun, and he was not tired of playing at this time, so he said good things for her: "In my opinion, she is quite peaceful," he told him what Pei Wanyin said to him. Xie Jie listened, it was Yun Zhuo's unique insights on "rules". After finishing speaking, he said, "You have the talent of latitude and longitude, and you have far-reaching strategies. Isn't it too condescending to use it against a little girl? Kill a chicken Use a sledgehammer, thank you for retreating!"

Xie Jie asked back: "Which little girl have you met who can say such a thing?"

"She's a smart person, and she must know what to do and what not to do."

"I'm afraid that she knows she can't do it." Xie Jie didn't want to argue with him, raised his hand to stop his unfinished words, and said, "It's no use arguing with me now, and don't worry that I will target her. It's still the same In a word, as long as she keeps herself safe, everyone can live in peace."

Shen Qinghe also wanted to say, if it was according to Xie Jie's intention, wouldn't those concubines be more dangerous than Yun Zhuo, but he swallowed the words again: Even if those concubines have two methods, but they want to Yes, but in charge of the palace.In essence, it is no different from the housewife.Yun Zhuo was different, even he would feel palpitations about her knowledge and methods.

More importantly, none of them knew what she wanted.

This is exactly what Xie Jie wanted.

He changed his mind and didn't intend to play against Xie Jie again.Zuo is just an irrelevant person, it's not worth treating him as a rift with Xie Jie.

Xie Jie asked again: "Your aunt, hasn't she done anything recently?"

"What action can I take? Her son has been going smoothly in the officialdom recently, she is too happy, how can she care about me?" Shen Qinghe smiled nonchalantly, "Although she is a bit cruel, it's a pity that her brain is not very bright."

"If you were willing to become an official in the court, why would you be constrained by them now?" Xie Jie looked at him and suggested, "Come back and help me?"

Shen Qinghe suppressed the smile on his lips, looked at Xie Jie, and asked seriously: "Do you really think that my temperament can be a good official? Yun Zhuo is right, if you want to be free, you must abide by the rules. I am in the wild now , just follow the rules of the court; when he is in the court, he should abide by the rules of the court. But I have been used to wandering all these years, and I am afraid that I will not be able to keep the rules of the court. "

"You are still so stubborn." Xie Jie sighed, got up and said, "I'm leaving, you can do what you want, don't drop the things in my house, otherwise I will send someone to the Shen's house to ask for money."

Shen Qinghe was afraid that he would be angry again, so he walked over and put his arm on his shoulder: "Where are you going?"
